This Sunday, Oct. 4, I’ll be on two panels at the West Hollywood Book Fair in Los Angeles, Ca.

First up, at the ungodly hour of 11:00 am to 12:00 pm I’ll be on the DREAM ON DEMAND: VISION VS. MARKET PLACE panel along with guests Javier Grillo-Marxuach (Middleman), Mike Mignola (Hellboy) and Mark Waid (every comic book ever).

The panel will be moderated by the irrepressible Christine Boylan (Star Trek Manga 2 und 3). We’ll be in the Comics, SciFi & Beyond Pavilion. Directly afterward we’ll all be signing at The Comic Bug Booth from12:00 pm to 1:00 pm, though I might have to cut out early for my next panel in which…

Bryan is the creator of one of my favorite current comic book series, SCOTT PILGRIM! The book Publishers Weekly called “A great oddball tale that captures the energy of a generation”.

As we all eagerly await the closing volume of this mad, genius mash up of manga, kung-fu flicks, video games, rock n’ roll and early twenties romance angst (and await with great trepidation the upcoming movie directed by Edgar Wright and staring one-note actor Michael Cera), I’ll be talking with Bryan about his creation, the grinding six years it’s taken to complete it, his dealings in Hollywood and what he plans to do after his epic is finally finished. We’ll also open up questions to you, the weary and hardened masses.

That’s 1:00 pm-1:45 pm SCOTT PILGRIM: Bryan Lee O’Malley In Conversation with Joshua Dysart. There will be a signingwith Bryan at The Comic Bug Booth afterwards.
